Eternal Tale

”Senior!”

Just as Tai Yu was lost in thought, a voice called out to him. He nodded slightly, ”I’ll leave this to you. I have other matters to attend to.”

Chen Daotian approached calmly, bowing his head, ”The Dao Ancestor has one more thing.”

”Speak.”

”The news about finding a supreme-grade spirit stone mine, if successful, will clear our debts.”

”......”

Tai Yu’s expression froze for a moment, then he let out a cold chuckle, ”In the Wild Heaven Region, the longevity families, the Immortal Palace, and the Dao Palace are all well-known.”

”Senior Tai Yu, I’m just conveying the Dao Ancestor’s orders.”

Chen Daotian raised his head, speaking neither humbly nor arrogantly, ”How you act is up to you. The Dao Ancestor won’t meddle in places with owners, nor will he make enemies everywhere.”

”Hmm.”A trace of respect flashed in Tai Yu’s eyes as he asked, ”So, it seems the Slaughter Saint Great Venerable has also been subdued by you, Senior?”

His words carried some uncertainty, merely probing.

”The Dao Ancestor doesn’t make enemies everywhere, especially not life-and-death foes. The Slaughter Saint Great Venerable has left.”

Chen Daotian’s eyes filled with an inexplicable dominance, his voice becoming much more resonant, ”The Dao Ancestor’s life-and-death enemies have never been these outsiders. Senior Tai Yu should also remember this.”

”Hmm.” Tai Yu responded expressionlessly, ”I will repay those debts.”

”Once repaid, your karma with the Dao Ancestor is settled, and you will not be disturbed in your travels through the Wild Heaven.”

”But the gratitude for the gifted pill is another matter. I, Tai Yu, am not an ungrateful White-Eyed Wolf!”

His booming voice echoed in all directions, and his tall figure soared into the sky, ”You juniors should clean up the battlefield here. I won’t linger.”

With that, he disappeared with two ancient beasts, seemingly unwilling to stay a moment longer.

To be fair, it seemed no cultivator of the grand world wanted to stay with these Immortal Dao anomalies for long.

The Chen family members also paired up, never traveling alone, walking in solitude through the vast and boundless Wild Heaven Region.

After Tai Yu left.

The Chen family members exchanged glances, nodding to each other, their eyes showing a hint of emotion that only they, as true family, could unconditionally trust.

Yet their hands moved swiftly, quickly collecting the storage rings of these Star Sea beings. The Chen family ancestral teaching was to remember to bring spirit stones home when traveling outside...

The remaining beings of the Ghost Face Clan did not express gratitude but silently helped the Chen family collect these storage rings, saying nothing.

The deceased clan members all had faceless appearances, making it impossible for the Chen family to distinguish who was who, given it was an innate racial trait, and they did not interfere further.

From then on, the Ghost Face Clan began to rebuild, with Yu Fangshuo officially ascending to the position of clan leader, recalling all clan members on missions outside.

The surrounding races were also quite savvy, with Great Ascension Venerables personally delivering vast amounts of Immortal Dao resources to forge alliances with the Ghost Face Clan.

The chubby member of the Ghost Face Clan was also taken back by the Chen family, not meddling in the internal affairs of other clans.

...

In a thatched hut deep within the Jade Canopy Forest Sea.

Frog Daoist and White Spirit sat together, with the latter learning to hold a stalk of Clear Dust Grass in its mouth, much to Frog Daoist’s satisfaction, who praised it for three days and nights.

They looked at the formation set up by the black bull, a cruel smile playing at the corners of their mouths.

”White Spirit, there’s something odd about the body of this Yuehuang Clan demon. This Daoist has finally recovered to the Great Ascension stage and can see some things.”

”Oh? Daoist, could there be some great secret within this demon’s body that hasn’t been revealed?”

White Spirit’s eyes lit up. This was a late-stage Great Ascension Venerable, fully entrusted to them by the seniors. Not squeezing out his value would be a waste!

The blood and flesh of this late-stage Great Ascension Venerable were supreme treasures, a single drop of blood could help a Qi cultivation phase spirit beast establish a perfect Dao foundation.

”This person is merely a heavenly spiritual root, yet possesses the Sacred Body of Water and Moon... how strange.”

Frog Daoist squinted slightly, a sharp glint in his eyes, ”This person may have practiced the grand world’s forbidden technique, the Foundation Seizing Method, truly a scoundrel to the core, deserving of death.”

”What?!”

White Spirit exclaimed, secretly alarmed, ”Daoist, did this demon seize someone else’s sacred body? If it were me, I could also cultivate to the late-stage Great Ascension!”

”White Spirit, some techniques are not to be practiced recklessly.”

Frog Daoist spoke solemnly, ”The Foundation Seizing Method is a heretical technique that goes against the heavens. This person would not dare to undergo Tribulation Crossing. Though we have killed many, it is in accordance with the heavenly dao’s cycle, the survival of the fittest. But seizing foundations involves some mysterious karma that may descend.”

”Captured by those two seniors!”

”Naturally, if this demon hadn’t seized another’s foundation, how could that senior have acted against him, ruining his Immortal Dao future?”

Frog Daoist sneered, his eyes full of mockery, ”Though karma is profoundly mysterious and unfathomable, realizing it when disaster strikes is a bit too late.”

”Daoist, White Spirit has learned a lesson!”

White Spirit took a deep breath, instantly quashing any thoughts of practicing heretical techniques, deciding to honestly guard the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

It glanced disdainfully at the demon within the formation, laughing, ”Truly pitiful, trapped in endless reincarnation, always as a mortal. Senior Bull’s formation evolution is truly terrifying.”

”Heh, this formation merely contains Evil Marrow Crystals from a Great Ascension evil spirit.”

Frog Daoist saw through the key at a glance, crossing his arms, his gaze lofty, ”Though this Daoist is not proficient in the formation Dao, given these formation materials, it is still feasible.”

”Truly a senior cultivator!”

”Hahaha... White Spirit, this Daoist loves hearing you speak.”

Frog Daoist laughed loudly, a small frog paw patting it, ”Let’s enter the formation and play, let him experience what it means to encounter a terrifying existence.”

”Alright!” White Spirit suddenly shouted, its eyes flashing with unusual excitement. Unity cultivators suppressing a late-stage Great Ascension Venerable, no cultivator would dare dream of such a thing!

Two sinister chuckles echoed, as Frog Daoist took out a restriction formation flag, and two primordial spirits instantly entered it.

...

Within the formation world, Elder Yao’s aura was gone, visited day and night by lustful Wild Heaven beasts, long tortured beyond recognition, vowing never to be a man again in the next life!

Now, his primordial spirit was no longer being burned but had fallen into endless cycles of reincarnation at its weakest...

Yuehuang Kingdom.

Yao Residence.

The night deepened.

Elder Yao was still feeding the horses, his eyes gleaming with determination. Just yesterday, he had obtained a system for dominating the heavens...!

Though he didn’t know what a system was, he knew he was favored by the heavens, granted an unparalleled great opportunity.

He would trample everyone underfoot, all beings would bow and kneel before him!

This system allowed daily sign-ins, and yesterday’s sign-in reward was an explosive constitution, the Dragon Proud Heaven Constitution!

It came with a taunt +% effect.

Buying groceries would inevitably lead to being mocked, speaking and acting would always be ridiculed by others.

In a crowd, you would be the brightest star, shining like gold even if hidden in a dung heap, spat upon by others.

This constitution left Elder Yao bewildered, unable to understand what the symbol meant, only knowing it was honing his mind, making him like the bright moon in the sky, attracting the attention of all the world!

But the latter part was what delighted him most, as long as he wasn’t beaten to death, he would break through limits between life and death, fighting across realms without logic, just doing!

”Hahaha!” Elder Yao suddenly let out a wild laugh under the moonlight.

Though he was currently feeding horses at the mansion, he believed that one day he would soar to the Nine Heavens!

Hiss hiss~~~

Swish! Whoosh!

Suddenly, the horses in the stable went mad, a rhino lifted its leg, an elephant butted a golden monkey, kicking Elder Yao three meters away, even spilling the feed all over his face.

Their eyes were full of mockery, what kind of trash dared to feed them?!

”Ah?”

Elder Yao spat out a mouthful of blood, his hair in disarray, shattering his beautiful fantasy, angrily shouting, ”You bunch of mundane horses dare to mock me! I possess the Dragon Proud Heaven Constitution!”

Rumble—

Suddenly the ground shook, the entire Yao Residence lit up instantly, with guards and archers all ready, aiming at Elder Yao outside the stable.

”Good for you, Elder Yao, can’t even feed the horses?!” A furious voice came from outside, as if Elder Yao had violated heavenly laws.

Elder Yao’s arrogant expression gradually turned to fear and shock, looking at the inexplicably ambushed guards, he had just knocked over a feed bucket, was such a big fuss necessary?!

”Master, I’m innocent!” Elder Yao cried bitterly, continuously kowtowing on the ground.

”Master, this person has damaged your porcelain floor, his intentions are impure!”

”This person dares to damage the porcelain floor today, tomorrow he’ll dare to damage the entire Yao Residence, Master, this person cannot be kept, he is a great calamity!”

”What?!”

Elder Yao’s eyes widened in disbelief, what had he done to make everyone target him so, such absurdity!

”You make a good point, then kill him and bury him in any pit.” The master waved expressionlessly, not even lifting his eyes.

”Ah!!”

Elder Yao let out a roar of anger, as if all his potential was unleashed, suddenly leaping several meters high, escaping into the hazy night.

He kept growling internally, as long as he survived until the sun rose...

He could sign in!

He ran frantically, pursued madly, he ran, they chased, Elder Yao had no escape.

Finally, as the chase continued, the sun began to rise.

Elder Yao, parched and exhausted, saw a glimmer of hope, finally, he could turn the tide, sign in!

”Ding! Congratulations to the host for signing in... Supreme Immortal Technique, Sunflower Manual.”
